Step 8 — Speaker
Remove the speaker by pulling it off of the display frame.
The speaker is connected to the display frame by a ring of adhesive foam (visible in second picture). By removing the speaker, this foam is torn. However, the speaker sticks quite well to the frame without reapplication of any adhesive.
To reassemble your device, follow these instructions in reverse order. This document was last generated on 2017-06-21 03:40:07 AM.
